Summary

Indian Trail Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Downers Grove, Illinois, serving grades PK-6 with a student population of 328. The school is part of the Downers Grove GSD 58 district, which is ranked 91 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Indian Trail Elementary School has some strengths, such as its performance for disabled students, it lags behind its nearby counterparts in key academic metrics. The school has consistently lower proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics compared to the Downers Grove GSD 58 district and the state of Illinois averages, particularly in 3rd grade. Additionally, the school has a higher chronic absenteeism rate than the district and state averages. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male and White students generally performing better than female and low socioeconomic status students.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Fairmount Elementary School and Hillcrest Elementary School, which are also part of the Downers Grove GSD 58 district, Indian Trail Elementary School consistently underperforms in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates, as well as in overall school rankings. The nearby Lisle Elementary School, which is part of the Lisle CUSD 202 district, also outperforms Indian Trail Elementary School in most academic metrics. While the school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio are in line with the district and nearby schools, the consistently lower test scores and high chronic absenteeism rate suggest that Indian Trail Elementary School may benefit from a closer examination of its instructional practices and support systems to improve student outcomes.
